Would You Attend A Two Hour Meeting Each Month If That Would Stop Your Aging & Prevent Your Death?

by Art Kunkin

In this new year of 2010 I intend to create the foundations for an organization that will help its members live a healthy, prosperous and meaningful life for a very long time, for an astonishing 200 years or more. In this column I will explain not only why there is a need and possibility for such a new organization but the steps by which I plan to accomplish this and how I hope to involve people like you.

Within the next twenty or thirty years it is conceivable that medical science will be able to prevent or cure all of the diseases that cause aging and death. In that same period of time, our society with its advanced technology might conceivably advance to the point that all human needs can be met without the need for individuals or nations to resort to violence and war. This is a wonderful future that human beings living today can create if they (we!) have the desire and will to do so.

The largest organization in the United States today is AARP, the American Association For Retired Persons. AARP has 38 million members. It is an organization devoted to helping people die in a comfortable fashion by selling them life insurance. AARP comforts the dying by advocating early retirement, pleasant vacation trips. sedatives and other pills. With its ties to organized medicine and the insurance industry, AARP is not an advocate of alternative medicine. Investigations by the U.S. Congress and other governmental agencies have revealed that AARP is often more concerned with maintaining its profitable relations with its insurance industry partners than in promoting the health interests of its members. AARP, in short, does not present a satisfactory vision of the possible future. AARP is death-oriented, insurance-system-oriented, a negative corporative force in our society pretending to be a positive non-profit. That is why I propose that the visionaries of our community create ALL, the Association for Longer Living, a membership organization with a positive approach to life.

I propose that ALL holds small and sociable monthly meetings, possibly in the homes of its members to minimize expense. During these meetings, ALL members will receive education in the latest scientific advances by which a person can end disease, aging and death. To accomplish this educational goal, I propose that ALL develops a cadre of researchers and writers to produce newsletters, articles and other publications containing the information to be discussed at these monthly meetings. I propose to immediately begin publishing the first of such ALL newsletters to demonstrate what is possible.

I propose that ALL educates its members about computers and the internet and internet marketing so that its members, whether they are young, middle-aged or chronologically advanced in years, can prosper and develop new careers with the new technology available. In short, I propose that the ALL structure be flexible enough to provide its members with a continuing educational program in any desired subjects. This is not a program for death but a program for life.

ALL can start small and on a local level. In the beginning ALL can start with a single chapter in Joshua Tree or Yucca Valley or Palm Springs, anywhere a few people agree to meet for two hours, once a month. We can take advantage of the Meetup structure already existing on the internet to extend ALL into more communities. From a small base and with clear goals, ALL can organically expand and develop its informational programs. ALL can organize youth branches, senior citizen branches, etc. It would be advisable to keep local chapters small enough to permit maximum involvement by all members. As the network of ALL chapters becomes larger and financially capable of undertaking new projects, we can develop health assistance programs to replace the need for life insurance. A strong ALL can help its members become financially independent.

I plan to work full time to build ALL starting now. I am prepared to use all the energy and experience I have accumulated in the last 81 years as a journalist, newspaper publisher, organizer and entrepreneur to bring others into ALL and create the broad leadership that a vast project like ALL requires. I propose to start immediately by publishing a monthly ALL newsletter that will be available no later than February 2010. Given the information I have already developed in my own thirty years of laboratory research, I plan to live for hundreds of years myself and want to help you achieve life extension also.

You can receive the ALL newsletter and be a pioneer in this project by contacting me. Don’t delay! Do it today! Volunteer to help start an ALL chapter consisting of your own friends and loved ones. Wake up and participate in creating a positive future through ALL!
